The Line Driver provides an X.21 interface on a DB15 female connector. The X.21
interface default configuration is DCE (Data Circuit Terminating Equipment) for
connection to DTE (Data Terminal Equipment), such as a router. However, the
X.21 interface on the Line Driver may be configured as DTE (Data Terminal
Equipment) for connection to DCE, such as a modem or multiplexor. When
connecting the X.21 interface of the Line Driver to your DTE device, use a X.21
straight-through cable (see Figure 4-4).
